The songwriting credit shared between Café Tacvba's Meme Del Real and Aterciopelados' Andrea Echeverri marks an intersection of two of the most inventive acts in rock en español.

Full Musical Analysis
Without verified transcription or tab data, the harmonic picture here is approximate. What can be said with confidence is that Ingrata operates within the natural minor vocabulary common to Café Tacvba's guitar-driven output — direct, grounded chords that serve the emotional urgency of the lyric rather than draw attention to themselves. The V chord (E major) functioning as a classical dominant in an otherwise diatonic minor setting is the main point of harmonic interest. Any additional voicings or chromatic movements remain unverified.
Ingrata carries a writing credit shared between Meme Del Real — the multi-instrumentalist and studio architect at the heart of Café Tacvba — and Andrea Echeverri, the singer and songwriter who built Aterciopelados into one of Colombia's defining alternative voices. The collaboration pulls together two acts that, despite occupying different corners of 1990s Latin alternative, shared a willingness to push against commercial rock conventions.
